    Disable desktop switching using the mouse wheel

    While using multiple virtual desktops, using the mouse wheel at an edge (left or right) of the screen will change to another virtual desktop as long as there isn't an application full-screened. Is it possible to disable this mouse wheel changing to another virtual desktop?

    I use the mouse wheel at the edges of the screen to control the sound volume so... many times I change more than what I was aiming for!

    Right mouse click on the desktop, choose Configure Desktop, Mouse Actions.

    You will see "Vertical-Scroll", just change the action (Switch Desktop) to something else or click on the Minus sign on the right to remove the desktop Vertical Scroll function entirely.

    Easy peasy ... actually, I have to admit I forgot where this setting was myself just now, took me a few minutes to remember ... so there you go.

      Done! Thank you so much @Rod J!

      I really couldn't find that option, and that is a good thing because it means that we have plenty of configuration options available. The more the merrier!

      Marking this one as solved. Thank you very much!
